Does anyone know what that pocket was originally intended for? Hint hint, it was originally on Levi’s and it’s quite old now.
I believe it was for pocket watch cowboys were wearing. Then people adopted for zippo lighters.

Good guess but no.
 
It was originally made to put gold nuggets in during the 1849 Gold Rush in CA.

Levi’s also switched from the button fly to a zipper, but returned to the button fly after many complaints, and one letter from a gold miner stated, “it’s like peeing through an alligators mouth“.

No gonna lie, I was originally thinking "How the hell did he get that answer, no way it's that long".....then I did the math and realized it was damn close to exactly right. From there my inner "Internet Pedant" took over and here we are :D
